Trip to Poughkeepsie, NY with Uncle Mike

Uncle Mike had to take a trip to a place called Poughkeepsie, NY for his job. It wasn't going to be very exciting, but Brownie came along to keep Mike company. Here's Brownie looking out of the window from the airplane:

There was already snow on the ground out east, but they were expecting another snow storm as well. Mike had to land at a smaller airport and then drive up to Poughkeepsie. It was dark and rainy at first, but then it started snowing. It kept snowing too. Mike wanted to visit a martial arts school that night, but classes were canceled due to the weather.

Mike had to work all day, but Brownie was able to use the internet in the evenings from the hotel:

The plan was for people leaving early the next morning to drive down to a different hotel that's closer to the airport. The drive took nearly twice as long as it was supposed to because of the snow that just kept coming. This is a picture from that drive. (Uncle Mike shouldn't be taking pictures while he's driving.)

Mike's flight out was canceled so he and Brownie had to spend another day at the hotel. Aside from not being able to come home, it was pretty relaxing. Brownie had time to catch up on some of his reading while Mike did some work on the computer.

Finally. Mike got home in the late afternoon the day after he was supposed to. Jeannette's brother Wally, his wife Natalie, and their baby Mason were already there visiting. Here's a picture of Mason, he's seven months old now.

That's it for now. Brownie is really looking forward to Spring so he can get outside and do some yard work.
